Awesome episode!! First, the legendary trio and Dialga and Palkia get a mention. Seeing two Jennys is also great along with Gardenia! Glad to see Nando again as well. Plus, all the pokemon out, Pikachu and Piplup interaction, and cameos of Cassidy, Butch, J, and Team Galaxy equals one of the best D/P episodes. A great plot, imo with continuity! Can't wait to see where this leads to. (Also, Stunky is awesome!)

That's ridiculous. Ash and J will never be rivals in the way that Ash and Shinji or Dawn and Kengo are. J is not a trainer travelling to get badges, she's a thief and a grown woman who leads a team of her own.

Can we please talk about the episode itself instead of wild theories with zero basis?

Well than maybe a rival in a different way. Not all rivals need to be collecting badges just to be Ash's rival.

I should have known that Team Galactic (Galaxy) would have to make an appearance in the anime at one point. I wonder if they will have the same intention of world destruction based on the info I looked up on the Wikipedia website. Of course (as always) I could be wrong.

Is it just me, or did Brock start moping about Prof. Ivy when punk Jenny, asked about her? (i don't understand much jap) And that scene owned just for the fact that Croagunk laughed at his shame.

70% of the Serebii population uses ultra powerful legendaries (also known as ubers) in their teams.
If you are one of the 30% that thinks outside the box and doesn't use ubers, copy and paste this into your signature!

Jesus tap-dancing Christ! This episode and the one preceding it have cemented D/P as the absolute best saga EVER. Nando is a great recurring character, especially since grass-type trainers have never been all that well-respected in the anime. He's the first character ever whose been a gym battler and co-ordinator, and I'm sure that come the Grand Festival and League our Nando will truly shine, although Drew fans are probably a bit miffed. Surely he could have had a different signature pokemon?
Team Galactic appearing for the first time, as well as foreshadowing of J or even Cassidy and Butch returning... I'm in love. Pokemon has flip-flopped back over shark.

From, the episode pictures this episode looked confusing: MaSSES OF CHARACTERS, CAMEOS, Pokemon running around, random sunfloras.
But after reading the posts in thios thread its all starting to makle sense.

however 2 questions
1. What did Kanto, ganster Jenny have to do with anything? and was it here skunk?
2. About the space time story! In the anime Darkrai is somehow linked with the Palkia and Dialga story. Also like the games the trio of failry things are. Also its hinted that Arseus may also be in the mix. So what about Giratina? The 3rd equivilant of Palkia and Dialga

1. I don't know the details, but apparently the Viridian City Jenny was passing by and was on Nando's side. The Stunky belonged to the city's Jenny (who thought Nando was the criminal).
2. Darkrai and Giratina were not mentioned, and Arceus himself didn't really appear like the others; he was just the egg.

Is it just me, or did Brock start moping about Prof. Ivy when punk Jenny, asked about her? (i don't understand much jap) And that scene owned just for the fact that Croagunk laughed at his shame.

Can anyone confirm this for me?

I really liked this episode, we got to see Pokemon interaction like in the past and the trainers using their Pokemon in varied ways. It had plot and that's why I liked it, I don't have any problem with enjoying a DP episode if it's good. But the best has to be the end, I loved that scene. I'm going to forget about the things I didn't like which are. 1) The horrible green background appearing behind Parukia and Diaruga2)Perfect shinning tiles 3)Team Rocket playing football, it took away all the atmosphere4) Natane apearing again, I don't like that gym leaders now are friends instead of people that you are afraid of.

I must say that this episode was really good. D/P is turning out to be a great series, it is like starting fresh, but in a different way. I can't wait for this episode to air in the U.S. I'm glad D/P starts tomorrow!
